Sacramental Guidelines provides helpful guidelines for anyone preparing classes that deal with the sacraments. In a clear and logical order, author Kenan B. Osborne puts forth the hierarchy of truths involved in sacramental insturction. He identifies which doctrines of the church are 'immutable truths' that must be concisely taught. Then, he discusses statements which are currently the official teachings of the church, but which may change in time. Finally, he describes those areas in sacramental teaching which are still being discussed and argued by reputable Catholic theologians.
